Abstract

O artigo propõe a discussão a respeito de como o movimento dos transgêneros pode questionar a ideia de “humanidade” presente no conceito de direitos humanos, a partir do tratamento desumano conferido aos componentes do grupo social. Com base na zona de indistinção entre o humano e o inumano, o texto apresenta o problema da transfobia e como a violação das regras presente no contrato social de gênero pode ser considerada premissa para a negação da humanidade de tais indivíduos. Procura, assim, avançar as reflexões sobre a liberdade de concepções normativas de gênero e promover a democratização contínua das relações de gênero.
